Activities

Kiambi has a wide range of activities for guests who want to make the most out of their stay with us.

Game drives

Game drives at Kiambi take place in the national park, as the lodge is situated at a distance from the park gates.

When embarking on a game drive, guests are taken down into the Lower Zambezi National Park via boat, covering 65km of the scenic Lower Zambezi river.

Upon arrival into the park, guests will meet their designated guide in the game vehicle to begin their drive on the lookout for animals in the area.

The Lower Zambezi boasts a healthy number of animals, with frequent sightings of lions, leopards, buffalo and the many antelope species of Zambia.

Please note this is a full-day activity.
